i'm trying to write a frontend to mplayer using php.
i have a perl script that listens to mplayer for things like progress and track name.
it outputs the variables to a file such as mplayer_vars.php
I'd like to be able to have real time progress on the page without reloading every couple seconds in an iframe.
is there a way to have php output the webpage, but still stay open to call javascript functions, and refresh the variables?
keep php script open to accect changing variables?
